In 2012, Stick and Balloon (a collaborative made up of Yanyun Chen and myself) joined the Tembusu College, National University of Singapore as Artists-in-Residence. There, we created the point-and-click adventure puzzle game Tembusu Bemused: The Tree Chapter, as a way for the college to introduce all their professors to the school and the greater internet community.

The game features writing, concepts, design and set-building by Yanyun Chen, music and SFX by Jachin Pousson, animation by Aimee Rusli and programming by Arul Prasad and Jason Poh. I took on the role of creating the art for the game, which involved designing the characters, sets and UI, as well as directing our composer and animator, and working with the programmers to create an artistically cohesive game.
